If the job is color critical conversion should be done in photoshop so to check it and most probably make adjustments. I'm sorry to say that even ''premium'' clients only care for low cost and quick ( quick like deliver tomorrow morning ) service, so converting in photoshop is something i rarely...

I could take that the handles fell of, their instructions are pretty clear ( most of the times )

To be honest the closest example i remember right now, is the ''scrubbing'' ''lottery'' coupons, the ones you have to scrub some surface to reveal if you won something, that doesn't lead to a direct sale of course. - which makes me think if there is some way to get feed back from a campaign...

One ex colleague same age was in your place, finally ( after 2 years...) found a job in a label factory and recently found a good paid one in a similar company. I'm 45 and my age is out of my cv years ago, even though those who consider it significant will ask you before and turn you/us down...

''And that would be...?'' It's a combination of the words tragic and laughter ( gelotas in greek ), would sound in english like ''tragelafic'' if you don't mind some language abuse. Both here and from b4print i red a lot of things i should take in consideration before forming a proposal...

In fact there's a regulation here that cut's down taxes when you're only working for one ''customer'' as a ''freelancer''. It's a win-win situation for management and government, management pushes costs down while government doesn't see unemployment figures go up... I don't know an english word...

You're right that's why i wrote i should look up what's ''analogue'' to my country's! I know it's better to find employment elsewhere and i've been looking to the last couple of years even harder the last one! I only found lesser paid jobs and in an interview i was asked if i could bring some...

I must look up some things here to found out whats analogue to my country's tax/med environment but you're already gave me a lot of insight here, thanks a lot! Does anyone here alright works on the same basis?

Happy New Year to every one! Getting straight to the subject. The printshop i'm working finally hit rock bottom - even though we still have a lot of work. The owner moved everything to a ''new'' company and he made new business proposals to the remaining stuff. For me the deal he proposed is...

Pick a couple printers, then give them the same file and see who prints closer to your expectations. If you're looking for optimal sharpening settings for digital, i don't think there's such a recipe, it depends on the photo/scaling and printing conditions combination. If you're set on a...

-Like i said we asked the designer to change the character set to a heavier one and the job was printed.- keith thanks for your input. I don't know what ''effect'' increased cylinder pressure or blanket packing would produce on images, adjusting topically blanket pressure is out of the...

No it isn't if i understand it's specs but thank you very much for your immediate response!

Need some help here! Got a catalog with item codes written in GothamNarrow -Xlight 6pt characters. I proofed in with our epson 4800 -which i know can't exactly print very thin lines and thickens them a little bit -, the client approved and we started printing. Problem is that no matter how...

Hi... I'm trying to impose 3 different booklets on one imposition. They should be printing together, first plate signature 1 of each booklet 2nd plate signature 2 of each booklet etc. I'm preparing the first imposition choosing the plate and scheme i want, then i make a new product part not...

Thanks all for answering, to be honest i was expecting more answers but it may have to do that this kind of questions may seem a little suspicious to some. Is there any ''formal'' research, you know ( like how much paper is printed anually etc ) so i could have a picture of what's going on in...

One could say that this might have to do with the fact that shops of this size can't afford to have sales department - boss is sales,production manager and the courier sometimes - but on the other hand on the '' good old times '' small shops were organized ( :-P ) the same way. I don't like it...

Can't tell who's beating harder, those who know the trade or those who doesn't... Anyway, i'm more interested how small/middle size shops ( less than 30 people ) are doing, i'm assuming that more and more printing is assigned to printers through these channels. Is there any kind of...

I was thinking that the late five years the majority of our jobs comes from print brokers and ''media agencies'' and we no longer have to do with the final customer. I could estimate that on the ''good times'' before agencies took over an amount like 70% of our jobs was given straight from the...

I've done a lot of hair-cutting using adobe's products, way before extract filter came out, but truth is real hair cutting would be more productive in economic terms, so i'll pass haircutter pro when come's out - or wait for v 3.1 :-P On the other hand, i don't find interesting haircutting...

Income taxes differ a lot in the east/southern edges of the western civilization, but still sounds better than the options i have as a prepress manager/operator/customer and management psychological and technical support... Thanks anyway - even though you have already given this piece of...
